Ulefone Be Touch 3 has a 4th gen fingerprint scanner

AndiDecember 4, 2015

Ulefone recently announced the Ulefone Be Touch 3, with downgraded specs. Why? well because it features new fingerprint tech.

We really didn’t know what to make of the Ulefone Be Touch 3 when specs were announced. Here we have a phone with lower CPU specs and smaller battery than previous versions, but at a similar price! What were Ulefone playing at?

Well to partially explain what the reason is, Ulefone today released the above video explaining that the Be Touch 3 uses 4th generation fingerprint scanners in the touchID home button. Apparently this will give better identification and faster unlock speeds.

Hmmm, still not sure if this is a worthwhile update though, do you? You can check out a comparison of the 3 generations of Ulefone BeTouch 3 here.

  Your name as you say the words, in the shadows, so you are not satisfied with any one thing, it gives you even let you watch the video, you will remain skeptical, it’s not a good mental performance, ulefone Be Touch 2 is a front fingerprint phone, and it is almost the only one, and the iPhone circular fingerprint phone. You do not need to doubt this point.

  They indeed have lied with Be Touch 2, but some things indicate they may have decided not to lie again. The Paris battery, which is 2250mAh and not high in face value but they didn’t lie with it and some guys, who tested the Be Touch 2 battery and conclude it is 2500mAh, even tell that Paris battery could be 2300mAh. On be touch 3, they stop lying and admit it is 2550mAh. And they have kept updating ulefone Paris. Whether they do these sincerely or just to save reputation, i guess now it is the right time to buy Ulefone new released devices, if some body need it. Well, i don’t need Ulefone devices. 😀

    lol … at the last bit
    like elephone , their concept is v.nice and has a solid objective. the Betouch phones are actually pretty decent clones of a top of the line device like Iphone… and even tho not a fan of clones , they have pretty much nailed that home button from iphone. Goes to show they are willing to put in the hard-work , but when it comes to application , they are lazy jerks.
    if they can rid themselves of that attitude , STOP lying the hell out of specs AND finally develop devices with a good interior (solid camera setup , good battery , good ui and tough body) they can get their deserved share of the market.
    if they weren’t so terrible with PR and taking care of their devices , i personally would like to handle that betouch someday !

  I guess they want to express that fingerprint information recorded with the touch panel are subdivided in many parts, and then all the parts of the information are processed at the same time, and that theoretically will improve the reponse speed of touch id. They have stressed the more contacting points on the FPC of new scanner, so i guess they mean what i mean.

10 seconds, you can see the fingerprints of the components connected to the line, it is obviously much more projects than before, this is a good upgrade, after all, the basic configuration of the fingerprint is a flagship phone should be allocated.

The frequent OTA of Ulefone Paris and the upgrade of fingerprint make me think Ulefone may really be doing somthing to improve user experience, instead of attracing eyeballs just with high specs. My Be Touch 3 will come in a week, and i’ll tear down it to have a look that the fingerprint scanner.

  When you tear your be touch 3 down, please take a few photos and post them under Ulefone new release on Gizchina and everyone will see it. Yep, the Paris OTA is heartening to users, and we need them to give us more confidence.
